 Nature Reviews Neuroscience - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nature Reviews Neuroscience [ISSN 1471-0048] is a highly respected journal (Impact Factor for 2003 of 27.0) that reviews the breadth and depth of modern neuroscience.
Neuroscience is the archetypal multidisciplinary science encompassing a variety of fields that share the common goal of attempting to provide a complete understanding of the structure and function of the central nervous system.
A series of advances in molecular, developmental and cognitive neuroscience, stimulated by the advent of powerful new experimental techniques, have now rendered some of the most enduring neurobiological questions increasingly tractable.

The complementary discipline of epidemiology, experimental neuroscience, fuels gene-environment hypotheses and investigates underlying neural mechanisms.
The answer to this puzzle can be found in the nature of cerebellar connections to areas of the cerebral cortex (particularly the prefrontal cortex) and in the uniformity of its intrinsic cellular organization, which implies uniformity in information processing regardless of the area of origin in the cerebral cortex.
In addition, in a policy era of 'zero tolerance of risk', evidence of biological abnormality in some of those who are violent, or biological markers of violence, may be seized on as a possible basis for preventive detention in the interest of public safety.

 in-cites - Journals - Nature Neuroscience
Many neuroscience journals are relatively specialized, whereas our aim is to publish papers of exceptional quality and significance in all areas of neuroscience.
The Nature titles all have high citation impacts in their respective fields, and when we launched Nature Neuroscience, our intention was that it should establish itself quickly as a premier journal.
I suspect that systems neuroscience and psychophysics papers tend to get fewer citations than papers in molecular or cellular neuroscience, but that won’t stop us from publishing them if we think they are important.

 nature cancer update - hot off the press - Control of cell growth
Cancerous cells accumulate many mutations, which allow them to evade the natural mechanisms that detect aberrant cell growth and rapid proliferation.
Understanding how normal cells repair mutations, or how mutated cells are prevented from undergoing new rounds of cell proliferation, is necessary if new treatments for cancer, and the prevention of metastasis, are to be found.
Work published in the July issue of Nature Cell Biology by Steve Reed and colleagues of the Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, California, uses the budding yeast to show the complex coordination that occurs in normal cells to regulate replication of DNA and cell division.
